This is a young grey tree frog (hyla versicolor). These frogs can be all green, all grey or a mixture of both. The little ones I've seen are mostly green. The one adult we found was ALL grey. It looked like a rock.

With fall hitting us like a lighting bolt, it feels like we’re closer to winter than the summer we’ve just left behind. Amphibians and reptiles of all kinds are becoming increasingly scarce. I was quite surprised to find this gray tree frog near the bottom of a tree.

La rainette versicolore - Hyla versicolor
Avec l’automne qui se fait ressentir comme un coup de foudre, on se croirait plus proche de l’hiver que de l’été que l’on vient tout juste de quitter. Amphibiens et reptiles de tous genres se font de plus en plus rares. J’étais tout à fait surpris d’y trouver cette rainette versicolore au bas d’u...

A second round of Tiny gray Tree frogs
On 24 Aug 2014 I stopped by a small pond near my home in hopes of catching a few photos of bullfrogs. It was still early morning with a light dew on the grass and as I was standing by the pond quiet and still hoping to spot the bullfrogs I started to notice the grasses plants and foliage around me and the pond. Then I noticed the first Tiny Gray tree Frog sitting on a leaf just a foot or less away from me. Then I noticed another and another. In all I spotted about a dozen of the quiet little fellows around me but I am sure there were more I didn't see. If I had to pick a real "OH Wow " moment from all my photos this past summer this would be it. These little frogs were amazing so tiny and well camouflaged that I was standing with them all around me and only by luck spotted them
Not as good as I would like but thought he was cute at about one inch long, hope every one has a lovely new week!!

This is a young grey tree frog (Hyla versicolor) we found sitting quietly in the grass. When we tried to catch her, she leaped onto my Yakima cargo box, which was down on the ground being washed. The dimpled black surface made for a nice setting for her to pose!
The younger grey tree frogs are bright green. They eventually turn to a very light mottled grey color with the appearance of maple bark or even a light piece of granite. This one still has a very faint hint of green on her skin.

A grey tree frog (hyla versicolr) lingered a little too long on the ivy last night. It was late morning when I found him right next to the spigot, moist and dripping with condensation as the sprinklers were quenching the dry garden.
(Note, he still has a bit of a butt bump from his tadpole days.)

There are two tree frogs in this complex H.chrysoscelis and H.versicolor which are visually inseparable. Its said that they can be differentiated by their song dependent on the weather conditions.

A tiny juvenile gray tree frog (Hyla versicolor) stayed a little late on our deck last night. When I moved the grill cover, there he was, very dark green - almost black. After moving him to the box, he turned much lighter, so they must be able to alter their color on demand!! (COOL!) Eventually, he will turn all gray as he gets older.

A tiny gray tree frog has been hanging around on my deck railing He's green because he's near the morning glory trellis and those bright green leaves, These guys are nocturnal so I think this is sleeping posture. He's only about an inch long.
Not sure how "eagle eye" manservant (or as Alan likes to call him RCMP - Royal Canadian Manservant Porter) spotted this Gray Tree Frog as he is tiny and blended in to his environment perfectly (I guess that's the idea). Just below him was knee deep poison ivy. Luckily he was still there when I came back with my boots :) He is much smaller than is shown above.
